VS2013 update4, package manager, installed jQuery-UI, but no CSS came with it. What am I missing? Is there something I have to manually download? this is non-intuitive for a package, no?

The CSS will be there, but not where you expect. Assuming you installed the jQueryUI-combined package the CSS will be somewhere like:
Solution_folder\Project_folder\Content\themes\base
Try setting Show all files and folders to on in Visual studio, then navigate through that folder structure and include them in your project.
If it's not there, make sure you check App_Themes as well.

@Beau The files in that folder should be yeah. Can you see any files in that folder? – Mathew Thompson May 01 '15 at 14:27

yes I do, thank you. I thought, however, that NuGet packages were usable out of the box... guess this isn't... I added references to them like this:@Styles.Render("~/Content/themes/base/css") but the autocomplete background is still transparent... – Beau D'Amore May 01 '15 at 14:31
